AI that works where you work, and thinks like you think
Behind every transaction, workflow, and data point is a person trying to make something better.
We've designed tailored AI experiences for the needs of three different types of users:
Power Users:
deep ERP practitioners
For payroll managers, FP&A analysts and project administrators, who rely on the ERP to practice their craft, we provide configurable interfaces with AI-powered proactive issue-detection, forecasting and context-aware predictive intelligence to foresee and mitigate challenges.
Business Users:
efficiency-focused professionals
For users who perform critical but less-intensive ERP work, we deliver intuitive, web-based interfaces designed for minimal disruption and day-one productivity – enhanced by AI that makes experiences faster and more efficient.
Casual Users:
occasional task performers
For less frequent users (with simpler needs, like approvals and time-off requests) we bring the work to them, through our Advanced Virtual Agent (Ava), to complete tasks without even entering the ERP. Because, sometimes, the best user experience is no user experience at all!
